ThailandFor a Base hostel this is a pretty good one. I’ve slept in many Base hostels, but this one is by far the best one! Everything is clean, staff is friendly and the location is great!
AustraliaLocation central to where I needed to be staff very helpful room comfortable
AustraliaStaff were so lovely! Cute hostel, great location!
Australiagreat location and the scary canary bar is great value and atmosphere
United KingdomVery good and the hostel was in a very good location . Love it.
VanuatuThe friendly staff, location and comfort. But too noisy inside hotel, due to some backpacker.
AustraliaGreat service, friendly staff. Clean and comfortable rooms, overall a pleasant stay and would visit again.
United KingdomPrivate room was small, but comfortable. Shared bathrooms were not very clean, so we were happy to have a private bathroom. A large kitchen - enough space for everyone. Very good location - grocery store, shopping mall and train station around the block, George street is very close - it's a good place to be in the city centre and reach all the centre attractions.
LithuaniaThe Hostel is inside the CBD with quick access to Shops , Transportation & Offices , excellent location . Staff are friendly and helpful to customers . The standard of hygiene is very High. Keep it up that way. EXCELLENT.
